We’re proud to share that Cycode has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) 2025 Vendor Assessment. We believe this recognition from one of the industry’s most influential analyst firms reinforces Cycode’s position as a market innovator and a trusted leader in application security.
We further believe the recognition underscores our commitment to transforming the way organizations secure their software through an AI-native platform that unites security and development teams with actionable, code-to-runtime context. By enabling teams to identify, prioritize, and remediate the software risks that matter most, Cycode continues to set the standard for modern application security.
Why IDC MarketScape Named Cycode a Leader
The IDC MarketScape highlighted Cycode’s strengths:
- Balanced consolidation through integration and native scanning: Customers emphasized Cycode’s balanced approach, which combines third-party ingestion with proprietary scanning to support gradual tool consolidation without requiring full “rip and replace.” One customer remarked, “Cycode has given us the visibility we didn’t have before,” underscoring the value of integration-driven visibility. At the same time, customers cited replacing other AST solutions after determining that Cycode’s built-in capabilities met their functional and operational needs. Native scanners also enable retroactive analysis, context enrichment, and quality improvement of results without sole reliance on ingested third-party data.
- Graph-driven, context-rich risk evaluation: Cycode’s RIG underpins a mature, context-aware risk scoring model designed for operational decision-making. It correlates findings across the SDLC and adjusts scores based on factors such as exploitability, blast radius, material code changes, asset sensitivity, and historical trends. Real-time ownership mapping and change impact analysis help ensure risks are routed and prioritized effectively, while transparent scoring and policy-based workflows support consistent, high-impact response.
- Comprehensive software supply chain security coverage: The platform provides broad coverage across the software supply chain, including CI/CD pipeline hardening, repository hygiene monitoring, insider threat detection, least privilege enforcement, provenance tracking, and digital signature verification, helping organizations strengthen system integrity and reduce exposure across interconnected environments.
Our Vision for AI-Native Application Security
We see ASPM as a critical pillar within the convergence of Application Security Testing (AST), Software Supply Chain Security, and Posture Management into a single, AI-Native platform.
Our mission is to unify fragmented tools and processes into one seamless experience — delivering end-to-end visibility, context-rich risk prioritization, and intelligent automation that empowers teams to secure software at the speed of innovation.
